I don't understand. Yes, they helped you win, but you have a fairly high chance of getting them on your team next game. After the game, there's no reason to pretend they're your friend any more. You already won. You don't need to encourage them to intentionally feed further. By reporting them, you're lowering your chances of ever having them on your own team. Isn't that what you want?
I'm so confused.
On the one hand, I'd say it's probably because they don't recognize it. I know I've been told to report people for all kinds of things (usually feeding - and it's usually a tank of some sort). But when I look at what he's doing from my perspective, he's trying to set engagements or zone people or peel or body-block to protect people or something else, and it just isn't working well.
Other times, I can totally see the troll behavior. So I make it a policy to only report if I personally see the behavior in question, and recognize it as such.
On the other hand, though, I'd have to ask: why does it matter?
The report system is designed to build cases based on the number of reported games rather than the number of reports per game. So for the purpose of case-building, it genuinely doesn't matter how many reports a player gets. So all that really matters is that you report the behavior you see.
As a corollary to that, there's no real benefit to asking for reports in the first place. And, in fact, it can be seen as a type of bullying, which is frowned on, and can earn a chat restriction.
Because for the most part, you have no way to make sure that they are intentional feeders. If their team is telling you "omg report this noob for intentional feeding, he sux!" half the time that is a troll or a team trying to vent their anger. I never trust someone from the other team, because the poor guy who fed could just be having a poor match, which is not a reportable offense.
#honorable opponents
If it's obvious that they are? I report them. However, in most cases of 'feeding' it isn't obvious. In fact, it just looks like someone playing bad. And playing bad isn't a reportable offense. Dieing isn't a reportable offense.
Some things to consider about that.
Asking for reports is considered toxic behavior and only ensures you get a report in return.
If someones feeding then either the system will nail them because riot's really good at catching them or your report will get them noticed more than likely.
1 report per game is the same as 9 reports per game it doesn't get them into Riot's que any faster. It still equals only 1 report per game so 1 reported game.
Asking the other team to report something can be annoying since if they're going to report they will and see above.
Don't ever say report in chat or say you're going to report since that just makes a bad situation worse. Just because you state you're reporting them or ask for it won't change their feeding in fact it will make it worse.
Bad scores don't always equal intentional feeding and unless you know what to look for or they're blatantly running into turrets or buying zeals + boots it could be something else.
Remember the simplest thing to do is report them quietly after the game.
Because you guys sit there whining all game "plz report x player" as if they don't see it already. So they get annoyed and just say fuck I wont report then.
Often times for me the person calling for reports... 2-3 minutes later is QQing in all chat and instead of reporting X player. I report the one calling for reports. Why? Because they've just displayed offensive language,harassment, negative attitude for 5 mins or more in all chat... and reporting a player for feeding is often harder to tell from the enemy teams perspective unless you see them rushing into lanes and diving tower, or going into a 4v1 or have 5 boots or so. Etc etc. It's a judgment call. Shouldn't really need to even mention it in all chat that X player is feeding on purpose. It can be seen.
I report feeders/leavers no matter whos team they are on. I really don't care if I win because the fact that it was a 4v5 makes it unfun and easy.
sometimes teammates on the other team are being toxic so a player will feed on purpose to piss them off. happens. sometimes they just feed cuz theyre arseholes. cant really do much about it
I had an intentional troll in one of my games. Team asks for the enemy to report him after the game. Next match one of the players from my last game is on my team. We joke about how we might get a troll free match this game. Only thing is the same intentional feeder was on the enemy team. Same champ, same summoner spells and same troll shit. Enemy asks us to report and the player from my last match says "/all you guys are just qqing because you suck and have to put the blame on someone else."
This fucker had just asked the enemy team to report him when the troll cost him a game but had the balls to tell the enemy that they suck and he wasn't going to report the troll.
I guess people only see trolls if they cost them a match.
Sometimes you just get people who are not good at the game and their score shows it. If I notice someone is Intentionally feeding I will report them because that effects YOUR team harshly. If I notice that they are trying their best, and they are trying to not feed so much, ect. ect. no matter what team I will not report them.
I only report them if it's super obvious that they're feeding intentionally, not just bad.
Well, I'd never do this in a ranked game, but there was once an unranked game where we had a shaco jungle who played PVE in the jungle all game and literally, not once, ganked a lane or participated in any team fights or objectives. Our top and mid lane were having issues, and we asked him (nicely) to contribute. He proceeded to mute us. We were losing so badly at that point that me (mid lane kass) and top (udyr) sold all our items and bought only move speed items. We then went to the enemy's base and ran around. We didn't get reported at the end; we got honored. The other team saw the Shaco raging in all chat about how bad his team was (while he's 0/0/0 at 20 minutes) and knew we were just responding to his toxicity. One should keep in mind that if they want to troll others can easily respond in kind ;-)
Because I'll probably forget to anyway, and it only takes one report to flag a game. Any extra supports are pointless.
It only takes ONE report, no matter where from.
/thread.
I been getting called a feeder lately. Not in all cases do people really tend to fed. Being level 17 I believe and new to the game I try to camp the turret because I have no chance to killing anyone level 20 or higher that have any skill play as if they have their ruins I can almost get one shot by most champs even with my armor ruins. Like the last game I played I was fiora and I went 6/14/4 their Lee at level 6 could turret dive and port out without even getting close to death (of course he was lvl 30.) They also had Rise and Udyr, taking more then two steps away from my turret they would come from jg and root me and kill be before I could do anything. Yes, I know about being aware of the map but it is hard to watch it all game and it's hard to tell if they are going bot or top. Also that reporting is a joke half of the games I don't even talk in I just ping and I will get reported for verbal abuse and that warning thing ups up every time you get reported for it. People report just to report or to be trolls maybe I don't know.
actually, it may sound weird, but intentional feeders and ragequitters are your friends and they allow you to win more, it's the same old 4 v 5 logic, your team has 4 vacant spots for a feeder/quitter (if you don't ragequit or feed), their have 5 therefore a feeder/quitter is always more probable to be on the other team
don't report them, treasure them, they are your friends
You can't really prove someone is intentionally feeding so I don't even know why that option is there. Unless someone is watching the game Riot can't tell if he is just a bad player, having lag problems, getting ganked repeatedly etc. They need to just replace intentionally feeding option with Trolling.
Are they really feeding or are they getting focused? Are you disengaging early leaving them in the dust? Is there a possibility they are lagging and are getting 2-12sec click delays? Are failed ganks considered intentionally feeding if the jungler doesn't disengage after seeing the ally had low mana and couldn't enter the fray?
When I use wards and gank a ton of lanes and catch people out, occasionally I get bitching about them "feeding." I'm sorry that I'm the only person in my entire elo who buys wards as the jungler, but if they're caught out they're caught out.
So I'll kill them. Simple.
Doesn't mean they're feeding. If there's an actual feeder, then I'll report them, but I'm not going to encourage the "I always get the bad teams/feeders/trolls!" Bronze mentality if there's actually no evidence of it.*
.
*Doesn't mean there aren't trolls or feeders, but when that's not the case I won't have pity.
Because people easily forget their own fail games (games with afk, feeders, etc) when they are on the winning side. I seen so many times people get happy or cocky when they are getting fed. They do not think of what the players on other team are going through. But once they get dealt a bad card, they start flaming and raging in caps..dont worry those guys will get whats coming to them
it's on the other team
